Corentin Moutet dented Daniil Medvedev’s late Nitto ATP Finals qualification hopes on Thursday at the Erste Bank Open, where he gained revenge against the 29-year-old to reach the quarter-finals in Vienna.
The Frenchman lost to Medvedev in the Almaty final on Sunday but ensured he would not suffer further pain against the 29-year-old just four days later at the ATP 500 in Austria. Playing with his trademark variety, Moutet edged a tight first set and then recovered from failing to serve out the match at 5-3, eventually advancing 7-6(3), 6-4.
Medvedev won his first title in more than two years in Almaty. He climbed to 12th in the PIF ATP Live Race To Turin following his run but his latest defeat means he faces an uphill battle to qualify for the Nitto ATP Finals. The 2020 year-end champion is 925 points behind eighth-placed Lorenzo Musetti, who is in action in Vienna this week. Medvedev will next head to the ATP Masters 1000 event in Paris.
Moutet, level at 2-2 in his Lexus ATP Head2Head series with Medvedev, will next play Musetti or Tomas Martin Echeverry in his fifth tour-level quarter-final of the season. The 26-year-old Moutet is competing at a career-high No. 36 in the PIF ATP Rankings.
In the first match of the day, Matteo Berrettini clawed past Cameron Norrie 7-6(6), 6-7(9), 6-4 to advance to the last eight in Vienna for the fourth time. The Italian plays third seed Alex de Minaur in the quarter-finals. Alexander Bublik also booked his spot in the last eight, beating Francisco Cerundolo 6-4, 6-2. Bublik, who saved all six break points he faced against Cerundolo, according to Infosys ATP Stats, has won four ATP Tour titles in 2025.
